Summary/Abstract: More than ten male personal names are engraved on two marble tablets, which were in the time of their inception placed in the city square of the Hellenic settlement of Tanais. Among the names are those of three men: Horouathos, Horoathos, and Horoathos, which convincingly recall the Croatian national name.
